    I don’t know if this is all Ferrari dealerships or Just Ferrari Of NE . I have never had such an issue getting a car serviced , ever . I have rear sensors that light up fine but not making the noise . I have been trying for 6 months now to get an actual appointment to get it checked and estimate to fix etc . They do not take appointments for diagnostic tests I am told . Crazy to me that I will pay like anyone else to have it checked but until I know what the hell is wrong and how long the car will be laid up how do I make a decision . They want me to just leave it there instead of waiting for the day , how long can this actually take to diagnose . No it is extremely inconvenient due to distance and arranging transportation back and forth for a diagnostic test . I think I am going back to the corvette , at least I can get service appointments . Is anyone familiar with a place in RI or Massachusetts that will actually make appointments to find out what’s wrong don’t care at this point if it’s a Ferrari dealer or not . Personally doesn’t bother me because they light up and the camera tells me all I need but want to sell this thing with these working . Thanks

    Oh man, that is a bummer (although well-deserved/congratulations to John T, I'm sure)

    I used them about 15 years ago with a F355. They work on high end cars like 300SL and do solid work. They may not have the particular equipments as they are not Ferrari specialists. So if it is basic work, should be okay. Working on the Ferrari transmission, maybe not.

    They regularly service my 612 and FF and have done repairs well beyond normal maintenance. I would highly recommend them.

    However, as Charlie said they do not have all the Ferrari diagnostic equipment. For instance, they cannot give me a reading of the clutch wear on the 612.

    As a courtesy Autohaus of Boston will hook up the factory diagnostic computer and give you the reading of the clutch wear on your Ferrari 612.

    Thank you! I will take you up on your offer. I will contact you in advance to arrange a convenient time.

    Also, thanks for replying to my post about the FF PTU rebuild on another thread. Fortunately I have no need right now, but who knows in the future.

    I live in RI and your name constantly comes up as a reliable customer centric place to have work done on my Ferrari . The issue I have is distance . Certainly don’t mind waiting for my car all day on those jobs that may be suitable for a day type job like fluid changes or diagnostics . I have tried to work with Ferrari NE to get a diagnostic on my rear sensors lighting up but not making noise and it’s very difficult. They won’t set an appointment for diagnostic test , I have to get car their get ride home leave it and they will fit it in when they can which is just not customer centric at all . Do you take appointments for things like that I can wait for ? Thank you

    This is great news for me . I have become so frustrated I listed the car for sale and I have no issues with the car , it’s great! I just laid up the car for the winter and took the liability off . I will absolutely be using you in the spring . If the diagnosis for sensors can be done while I wait I won’t have to inconvenience you folks with a ride back to Warwick RI which might be an hour or a little more albeit fine with me . If the repair would require you to have the car a couple days I also understand . I greatly appreciate your response to my problem which gives me comfort if I keep the car there is a very reliable and certainly customer focused facility such as yours to take care of my car . Thank you so much

    Bob
